Most of the students thought the girl’s behaviour was ____1____. Ms Whitehead didn’t ____2____ her opinion, instead, she told another story. “It was about a loving couple who were travelling on a ship. Unfortunately, they met with a storm and the ship was going to sink (沉没); only ____3____ of the couple would have the chance to get to the lifeboat. ____4____ all passengers’ surprise, the husband left his wife behind and got on the lifeboat himself.” The teacher stopped and asked, “How would you feel if you were one of the passengers?” Shortly after, continued Ms Whitehead, “The husband survived the shipwreck and returned home. He didn’t marry others but ____5____ their daughter alone after the worst day. 30 years ____6____ , the daughter learnt about what happened on the ship by accident. Although she really wanted an ____7____ from her father, her love for her father was always in the way.

As a husband, he ____10____ to go with his wife. As a father, he had to take the ____11____ of survival for the other loved one. During the rest of his life, he made their daughter—Evelyn into a ____12____, pretty girl with double love. Yes, the great husband is my father.” The class dropped into ____13____ as Ms Whitehead finished her story. She didn’t think any words were necessary and was sure that all the ____14____ should have been rethinking about their careless replies. Seeing is not always believing. We ____15____ not judge anyone or anything unless we have learnt the full story. Put yourself in others’ shoes and then you can really understand them. 1.

C 12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了哲学老师Ms Whitehead在课堂上通过讲述自己父母在沉船海难中生死抉择的真实故事，反转了学生对“弃妻求生”表象的片面评判，深刻阐释了“眼见不一定为实”、唯有全面了解事情全貌并设身处地换位思考才能真正理解他人的哲理。 【1题详解】 句意：大多数学生认为这个女孩的行为是不妥当的。 根据前句“A young girl didn’t give up her seat to an old man on a bus.”可知，年轻人未在公交车上给老人让座，学生们第一反应普遍认为该举止不合礼貌、不得体，应选用improper表示“不妥当的”。impatient“不耐烦的”，unhappy“不高兴的”，unnecessary“不必要的”，均无法准确表达对未让座行为的道德评价。 【2题详解】 句意：Ms Whitehead并没有表达自己的观点，而是讲了另一个故事。 根据空后的“her opinion”以及“instead”可知，老师并未直接亮明个人立场，而是通过讲故事引导学生反思，固定短语“express one’s opinion”意为“表达某人的观点”，应选用express表示“表达”。believe“相信”，accept“接受”，remember“记住”，均与引出后续故事的教学引导语境不符。 【3题详解】 句意：夫妻二人中只有一人能有机会登上救生艇。 由“the couple”可知，此处限定在两者范围之内；结合副词only（仅仅；只有）以及下文最终只有丈夫一人登艇逃生的事实“the husband left his wife behind and got on the lifeboat himself”可知，获救名额仅限夫妻中的一人，应选用one表示“一人”。both“两者都”，each强调各自，neither“两者都不”，均与只有一人登上救生艇的事实相矛盾。 【4题详解】 句意：令所有乘客惊讶的是，丈夫抛下了妻子，自己登上了救生艇。 空格置于“all passengers’ surprise”之前，此处是固定短语“to one’s surprise”，意为“令某人惊讶的是”，应选用To。As“作为”，With“随着”，Beyond“超出”，均无此固定搭配习惯。 【5题详解】 句意：在度过了那最糟糕的一天后，他没有再娶他人，而是独自将他们的女儿抚养成人。 根据连词but连接转折分句以及空后“their daughter alone”可知，此处指父亲独自抚育女儿长大，动词短语“bring up”意为“抚养”，应选用brought up表示“抚养”。gave up“放弃”，dressed up“打扮”，looked up“查阅”，均不符合抚育孩子的语境。 【6题详解】 句意：30年后，女儿偶然得知了当年在轮船上发生的事情。 根据空前表示时间段的“30 years”以及后文动词过去式“learnt”可知，此处表示在事件发生三十年之后，结构“一段时间+ later”意为“多长时间以后”，应选用later表示“以后”。ago表示“从现在算起的……以前”，after通常作介词或连词后接时间点或从句，before通常置于过去完成时中，均不符合此处的时间状语结构。 【7题详解】 句意：尽管她内心非常想得到父亲的一个解释，但对父亲的爱始终让她难以开口。 根据后句“Her question in her heart wasn’t answered until she happened to find it out in his diary…”可知，女儿心中一直存有父亲当年为何弃母求生的巨大困惑，渴望得到一个合理的交代与阐释，应选用explanation表示“解释”。excuse“借口”，report“报告”，present“礼物”，均无法准确表达对深层疑虑寻求答案的心理。 【8题详解】 句意：事情的全部真相是：在那一天，她的父母之所以踏上旅途，是为了完成母亲生前最后的愿望。 根据冒号后具体道出当年鲜为人知的母亲病危等悲壮隐情可知，此处指展现事情的真实全貌，“The whole story is…”意为“事情的全部真相是……”，应选用story表示“来龙去脉”。trip“旅行”，class“课堂”，family“家庭”，均不能作主语引出后文对海难真相的揭示。 【9题详解】 句意：是为了完成她最后的愿望，因为她身患绝症、濒临死亡。 根据空后原因解释“because she was dying of an incurable illness”可知，母亲已是重病垂危之人，这次旅行是为满足其临终心愿，形容词last意为“最后的；临终的”，固定短语“one’s last wish”意为“最后的愿望”，应选用last表示“最后的”。first“最初的”，best“最好的”，worst“最坏的”，均不符合绝症垂危时完成心愿的悲壮语境。 【10题详解】 句意：作为丈夫，他渴望追随妻子而去。 根据前句母亲罹患绝症以及下文父女情深的情节可知，作为深爱妻子的丈夫，他本意是想与挚爱同生共死，“go with his wife”在此处委婉表达追随妻子赴死，动词wish意为“希望；渴望”，此处应选用wished表示“渴望”。hated“憎恨”，tried“尝试”，refused“拒绝”，均无法体现丈夫对病妻深沉而悲壮的爱。 【11题详解】 句意：作为父亲，他不得不为另一个所爱之人承担起活下去的责任与生机。 根据前文提到的“would have the chance to get to the lifeboat”以及父亲必须独自抚养幼女长大的责任可知，为了不让女儿孤苦无依，他必须抓住那仅有的生存机会活下去，应选用chance表示“机会”。risk“风险”，place“位置”，trouble“麻烦”，均不符合语境中生与死的决绝抉择。 【12题详解】 句意：在余生中，他用双倍的爱将他们的女儿Evelyn培养成了一个阳光、美丽的女孩。 空格置于不定冠词a之后，与形容词pretty并列修饰名词girl，且伴随状语为“with double love”，需填入积极褒义的性格形容词，应选用sunny表示“阳光的”。crazy“疯狂的”，silent“沉默寡言的”，lonely“孤独的”，均为负面消极词汇，与得到父爱悉心呵护的健康成长结果相悖。 【13题详解】 句意：当Ms Whitehead讲完她的故事时，全班陷入了一片沉寂。 海难真相的震撼反转和父爱的伟大让所有先前轻率发言的学生深受触动，陷入深深的反思与肃静之中，应选用silence表示“沉默”。noise“噪音”，happiness“快乐”，sadness“悲伤”（侧重情绪，drop into silence是形容教室鸦雀无声的固定表达），均不符合此时静穆沉思的课堂氛围。 【14题详解】 句意：她确信所有的学生都必定在反思他们此前草率的回答。 根据文章第一段开头“Ms Whitehead was asking her students what they thought about it…Most of the students thought…”前后呼应可知，开课之初做出未审视全貌之轻率评判的正是班上的学生们，应选用students表示“学生”。questions“问题”，teachers“老师”，passengers“乘客”，均不是在教室里聆听故事并反思发言的主体。 【15题详解】 句意：除非我们已经了解了事情的全部真相，否则我们不应该妄下断言评判任何人或事。 根据文末总结的交际哲理“Seeing is not always believing.”以及“Put yourself in others’ shoes”可知，此处向大家提出立身处世的理性道德建议，否定形式should not表示“不该”，应选用should表示“应该”。must not侧重严厉禁止，would not表示不会，could not表示不能，均不如should符合循循善诱的哲理启迪语境。 三、阅读理解 (共30小题，每小题2分，满分60分) 第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A CUSTOMERS’ WORRIES ABOUT SELF-DRIVING IN CHINA 16.

B 17. C 18. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，是一篇关于顾客对无人驾驶汽车的担忧的调查报告。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据标题“CUSTOMERS’ WORRIES ABOUT SELF-DRIVING IN CHINA”可知，报告主题是人们对无人驾驶汽车的担忧，故选B。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Passenger safety”这一行的柱状图可推测，柱状图的顶点在40%和50%的中间，应该是45%，故选C。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Loss of driving pleasure”可知，有一部分人认为无人驾驶会导致失去驾驶乐趣，选项C“一部分人认为这种车让司机感到无聊”是正确的。故选C。 B Have you ever seen cattle (牛) stand up and walk on two legs in real life? In the cartoon film called Niu Lai, cattle walk upright just like we do. But in reality, we rarely see cattle stand like this. However, other animals, like bears, do it quite often. The reason comes down partly to weight. According to the University of California, most cows weigh between 450 and 650 kilograms, and bulls (公牛) can weigh over 800 kilograms. To give their heavy body better support, cattle have to walk on four legs. How cattle carry their weight is important, too. Like horses and sheep, cattle put more weight on their front legs—that’s where their head, neck and the heaviest part of their body are. To stand on two legs, cattle would need to move their weight back, which is very difficult for them. However, weight is not the only reason. Many bears are also big and walk on four legs most of the time, but they often stand up to see further or to reach things. The secret is in the “feet”. According to China Science Communication, bears, like humans, walk with their whole foot touching the ground. This lets bears stand up well even on two feet. Cattle, on the other hand, only walk on the tips of their toes (脚趾). These tiptoes are covered by hooves, which are made of the same thing as our hair and nails (指甲). This, along with the heavy weight, makes it hard for cattle to stay upright for long. 19. Why does the writer mention the film Niu Lai at the beginning? A. To tell us a funny story about cattle. B. To introduce the topic of the passage. C. To advise readers to watch the movie. D. To give an example of a film about cattle. 20. Why do cattle put more weight on their front legs? A. Because this helps them run faster. B. Because their back legs are shorter. C. Because their front legs are stronger. D. Because most of their weight is at the front. 21. What can we know from the passage? A. Bears walk on the tips of their toes. B. Horses can’t stand up well on two feet. C. Bulls usually weigh less than 800 kilograms. D. Cattle can stand upright on two feet for long. 22. Where may this passage come from? A. A science magazine B. A travel diary C. A storybook D. A film website 【答案】19. B 20. D 21. B 22. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以电影《牛来》中牛双腿行走的情节引入，对比现实情况，从体重、身体重心分布以及脚部结构三个方面科学解释了牛无法像人或熊一样双腿站立行走的原因。 【19题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In the cartoon film called Niu Lai, cattle walk upright just like we do. But in reality, we rarely see cattle stand like this.”可推知，作者通过电影情节与现实情况的对比，引出本文要探讨的核心话题，即牛为什么不能像人一样双腿行走。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“cattle put more weight on their front legs—that's where their head, neck and the heaviest part of their body are.”可推知，牛的前腿承载更多重量是因为身体最重的部分位于前方。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Like horses and sheep, cattle put more weight on their front legs... which is very difficult for them.”可推知，马与牛的身体重量分布特征相似，因此马也很难双脚站立。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中多次引用“According to the University of California”和“According to China Science Communication”以及文章科普动物身体结构的内容，可推知文章来源于科学杂志。 C Have you ever heard some people describe themselves as “I people” or “E people”? Do you want to know what these letters mean? These people describe themselves in terms of the personality types classified (分类) by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The test was developed by Isabel Myers and her mother Katharine Briggs according to their work with Carl Jung’s ideas about personality types. The MBTI is a self-report test developed to help people know about their own personality type, strengths, likes and dislikes. It is not used to test your mental (精神的) health. There are no right or wrong answers. No one personality type is the best or the worst. In recent years, the MBTI has been used in more and more areas. ▲ People take the test and it can help them to learn about what the best jobs are for each MBTI type. For example, “E people” can easily go into marketing (营销), while “I people” should become engineers. However, we should know that it is only a guide, and it cannot decide our dream jobs. The MBTI personality test may show us something we don’t know about ourselves, but we should not take its result too seriously. Who we are is shaped by our thoughts, values and daily behaviours. The result of the test can’t define (定义) who we are. 23. How does the writer start this passage? A. By asking questions. B. By giving examples. C. By telling stories. D. By showing opinions. 24. What is the main purpose of the MBTI test? A. To get a dream job. B. To test mental health. C. To understand personality. D. To make more friends. 25. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. People use the MBTI to make their dreams come true. B. People treat the MBTI as a useful tool for learning about others. C. People use the MBTI as a way to help them choose the right job. D. It is also getting more and more popular in other foreign countries. 26. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. The MBTI is a good topic to share with our friends. B. We should not define ourselves only by a simple test. C. We need to set good values and become nice people. D. The MBTI is important for people to know who they are. 【答案】23. A 24. C 25. C 26. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了MBTI性格测试的起源、主要目的及其在职业选择等领域的应用，同时提醒读者应理性看待测试结果，不要被测试定义。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Have you ever heard some people describe themselves as ‘I people’ or ‘E people’? Do you want to know what these letters mean?”可知，文章开头通过两个疑问句来引入话题，吸引读者注意。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The MBTI is a self-report test developed to help people know about their own personality type...”可知，MBTI测试的主要目的是帮助人们了解自己的性格类型、优势及喜好。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“People take the test and it can help them to learn about what the best jobs are for each MBTI type.”可知，空格后文提到测试能帮助人们了解每种类型最适合的工作，并举例说明，因此空格处应填入与利用MBTI选择工作相关的句子。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“But we should not take its result too seriously...The result of the test can't define who we are.”可知，作者在本段强调不应过于重视测试结果，因为测试不能定义我们是谁，即不应仅通过简单的测试来定义自己。 D About a month passed. Then one Friday in July, Gilbert and I were walking home from the trading center. “How’s the windmill (风车) going?” he asked. “I have everything, but still no generator (发电机),” I said. “If I had it, I could build the machine tomorrow. I’m afraid this dream will never come true.” “Oh, sorry.” Just then, a young man about our age passed us, pushing his bike. I looked down and noticed a familiar glitter (装置) by the tire. “Look, Gilbert, another dynamo!” I ran over and asked to see his bike. I bent down and gave the pedal a good spin (旋转), and when I did, the headlamp flickered on (闪烁). “It’s perfect,” I said. Gilbert turned to him. “How much to buy the dynamo?” “No, Gilbert,” I said, “I don’t have any—” “How much?” Gilbert asked. The man refused at first, but finally gave in. “Two hundred kwacha,” he said, “with the bulb.” Gilbert’s father had given away all their food during the famine, and I was pretty sure their money was low. Still, Gilbert reached into his pocket and pulled out two hundred kwacha—two red paper notes—and handed them to the man. Soon I was holding the dynamo and the bulb in my hands. “Zikomo kwambiri, Gilbert,” I said. “Thank you very much. You’re the greatest friend I ever had.” While Gilbert went home, I ran back to my room and placed the dynamo next to the other materials. It was like adding the last piece to the great puzzle (拼图) in my life. The moment I did, a strong gust of wind blew open my door, and I seemed to see the finished machine, its blades spinning wildly through the red dust. Or maybe that was only a dream. (Excerpted from The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind) 27. Which of the following happened first? A. William spun the pedal. B. Gilbert asked the price. C. William thanked his friend. D. The wind blew the door open. 28. Why does the writer compare the dynamo to the last piece of a puzzle? A. To show it was very cheap. B. To show it was small and shiny. C. To show it completed his long-held dream. D. To show that the puzzle was too hard for him. 29. How did William most probably feel at the end of the passage? A. He felt quite calm. B. He felt hopeful again. C. He felt worried about the wind. D. He felt afraid that it was only a dream. 30. What is the passage mainly about? A. A poor family in Malawi. B. A dream of building houses. C. A boy and his broken bicycle. D. A friend who made a dream come true. 【答案】27. A 28. C 29. B 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，节选自《驭风少年》，讲述了少年威廉想要建造风车却一直缺少发电机，在他为此沮丧时，好友吉尔伯特出钱帮他买下了自行车上的发电机，让他的造风车梦想离实现更近一步。配图为自行车结构示意图，标注了文中提到的前灯、发电机、踏板等部件，辅助读者理解相关事物。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“I bent down and gave the pedal a good spin (旋转), and when I did, the headlamp flickered on (闪烁).”，结合全文事件发展顺序，威廉转动踏板是四个事件中最先发生的。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If I had it, I could build the machine tomorrow. I’m afraid this dream will never come true.”以及最后一段“It was like adding the last piece to the great puzzle (拼图) in my life.”，可知威廉只差发电机就能完成风车建造，得到发电机就像拼图补齐最后一块，意味着他的长久梦想即将实现。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I seemed to see the finished machine, its blades spinning wildly through the red dust.”，可知威廉拿到关键零件后能想象出风车建成的样子，说明他重新对梦想充满希望。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕威廉造风车缺发电机、好友吉尔伯特出资帮他买下自行车发电机的内容展开，核心是朋友的帮助推动了梦想的实现。 第二节： (一) 根据对话内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，每个选项限用一次。 Mr Friend is talking to Simon in his office.

Full calendars, nonstop notifications (消息提醒), and long to-do lists make people feel they are making progress. However, many people end their days very tired and wonder why their big goals are still far away. The truth is that being busy is different from being effective (有效的): One fills time while the other creates results. Understanding the difference helps you control your attention, make smarter choices, and focus on what truly matters. Busyness gives a false sense of achievement because it fills time with activity. Answering emails, attending meetings, and checking off small tasks create the illusion (错觉) of progress. However, activities of this kind often have no real purpose and fail to move important goals forward. What’s more, busy people often let outside tasks take over their time. As a result, they have little control over time, which leads to stress and little progress. Effectiveness, however, is measured (衡量) by results, not activity. Rather than ask how much was done, effective people ask what was achieved. They prioritise (优先考虑) tasks that create meaningful change, even if those tasks require more focus and effort. For example, they decide ahead of time what is worth their energy and then prioritise their time for important work. This planned method reduces unnecessary tasks and creates space for deep, focused effort. The real cost of busyness is not time spent, but progress lost. Being busy often hides the fact that little of real value is achieved. Effective people, on the other hand, often take a break from their work to check if they are keeping to their goals. When you stop measuring your days by how full they are and start measuring them by what truly moves you forward, work becomes more purposeful and life feels more satisfying. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 41. How do many people feel at the end of a busy day? _______________________________________________________ 42. Why do people think busyness brings them a sense of achievement? _______________________________________________________ 43. What do effective people decide ahead of time? _______________________________________________________ 44. What is the real cost of busyness? _______________________________________________________ 45. How can we measure our days properly? _______________________________________________________ 【答案】41. Very tired. 42. It fills time with activity. 43. What’s worth their energy. 44. Progress lost. 45. By what truly moves you forward. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，辨析了忙碌和高效的不同，提出忙碌不等于有成效，倡导关注结果、聚焦真正有价值的事。 【41题详解】 原文第一段直接给出信息“many people end their days very tired”，直接提取。故填Very tired。 【42题详解】 原文第二段“Busyness gives a false sense of achievement because it fills time with activity”，直接提取原因。故填It fills time with activity。 【43题详解】 原文第三段“they decide ahead of time what is worth their energy”，直接提取。故填What’s worth their energy。 【44题详解】 原文第四段“The real cost of busyness is not time spent, but progress lost”，直接提取。故填Progress lost。 【45题详解】 原文第四段“When you stop measuring your days by how full they are and start measuring them by what truly moves you forward”，提炼核心。故填By what truly moves you forward。 四、词汇运用 第一节 (共10小题，每小题1.5分，计15分) 阅读下列短文，从方框中选择适当的词或短语并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺，意思完整，每词或短语限用一次。 pain positive even youth go through How the Steel Was Tempered is a Russian novel about the life of Pavel Korchagin.

B Have you ever seen cattle (牛) stand up and walk on two legs in real life? In the cartoon film called Niu Lai, cattle walk upright just like we do. But in reality, we rarely see cattle stand like this. However, other animals, like bears, do it quite often. The reason comes down partly to weight. According to the University of California, most cows weigh between 450 and 650 kilograms, and bulls (公牛) can weigh over 800 kilograms. To give their heavy body better support, cattle have to walk on four legs. How cattle carry their weight is important, too. Like horses and sheep, cattle put more weight on their front legs—that’s where their head, neck and the heaviest part of their body are. To stand on two legs, cattle would need to move their weight back, which is very difficult for them. However, weight is not the only reason. Many bears are also big and walk on four legs most of the time, but they often stand up to see further or to reach things. The secret is in the “feet”. According to China Science Communication, bears, like humans, walk with their whole foot touching the ground. This lets bears stand up well even on two feet. Cattle, on the other hand, only walk on the tips of their toes (脚趾). These tiptoes are covered by hooves, which are made of the same thing as our hair and nails (指甲). This, along with the heavy weight, makes it hard for cattle to stay upright for long. 19. Why does the writer mention the film Niu Lai at the beginning? A. To tell us a funny story about cattle. B. To introduce the topic of the passage. C. To advise readers to watch the movie. D. To give an example of a film about cattle. 20. Why do cattle put more weight on their front legs? A. Because this helps them run faster. B. Because their back legs are shorter. C. Because their front legs are stronger. D. Because most of their weight is at the front. 21. What can we know from the passage? A. Bears walk on the tips of their toes. B. Horses can’t stand up well on two feet. C. Bulls usually weigh less than 800 kilograms. D. Cattle can stand upright on two feet for long. 22. Where may this passage come from? A. A science magazine B. A travel diary C. A storybook D. A film website C Have you ever heard some people describe themselves as “I people” or “E people”? Do you want to know what these letters mean? These people describe themselves in terms of the personality types classified (分类) by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The test was developed by Isabel Myers and her mother Katharine Briggs according to their work with Carl Jung’s ideas about personality types. The MBTI is a self-report test developed to help people know about their own personality type, strengths, likes and dislikes. It is not used to test your mental (精神的) health. There are no right or wrong answers. No one personality type is the best or the worst. In recent years, the MBTI has been used in more and more areas. ▲ People take the test and it can help them to learn about what the best jobs are for each MBTI type. For example, “E people” can easily go into marketing (营销), while “I people” should become engineers. However, we should know that it is only a guide, and it cannot decide our dream jobs. The MBTI personality test may show us something we don’t know about ourselves, but we should not take its result too seriously. Who we are is shaped by our thoughts, values and daily behaviours. The result of the test can’t define (定义) who we are. 23. How does the writer start this passage? A. By asking questions. B. By giving examples. C. By telling stories. D. By showing opinions. 24. What is the main purpose of the MBTI test? A. To get a dream job. B. To test mental health. C. To understand personality. D. To make more friends. 25. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. People use the MBTI to make their dreams come true. B. People treat the MBTI as a useful tool for learning about others. C. People use the MBTI as a way to help them choose the right job. D. It is also getting more and more popular in other foreign countries. 26. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. The MBTI is a good topic to share with our friends. B. We should not define ourselves only by a simple test. C. We need to set good values and become nice people. D. The MBTI is important for people to know who they are. D About a month passed. Then one Friday in July, Gilbert and I were walking home from the trading center. “How’s the windmill (风车) going?” he asked. “I have everything, but still no generator (发电机),” I said. “If I had it, I could build the machine tomorrow. I’m afraid this dream will never come true.” “Oh, sorry.” Just then, a young man about our age passed us, pushing his bike. I looked down and noticed a familiar glitter (装置) by the tire. “Look, Gilbert, another dynamo!” I ran over and asked to see his bike. I bent down and gave the pedal a good spin (旋转), and when I did, the headlamp flickered on (闪烁). “It’s perfect,” I said. Gilbert turned to him. “How much to buy the dynamo?” “No, Gilbert,” I said, “I don’t have any—” “How much?” Gilbert asked. The man refused at first, but finally gave in. “Two hundred kwacha,” he said, “with the bulb.” Gilbert’s father had given away all their food during the famine, and I was pretty sure their money was low. Still, Gilbert reached into his pocket and pulled out two hundred kwacha—two red paper notes—and handed them to the man. Soon I was holding the dynamo and the bulb in my hands. “Zikomo kwambiri, Gilbert,” I said. “Thank you very much. You’re the greatest friend I ever had.” While Gilbert went home, I ran back to my room and placed the dynamo next to the other materials. It was like adding the last piece to the great puzzle (拼图) in my life. The moment I did, a strong gust of wind blew open my door, and I seemed to see the finished machine, its blades spinning wildly through the red dust. Or maybe that was only a dream. (Excerpted from The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind) 27. Which of the following happened first? A. William spun the pedal. B. Gilbert asked the price. C. William thanked his friend. D. The wind blew the door open. 28. Why does the writer compare the dynamo to the last piece of a puzzle? A. To show it was very cheap. B. To show it was small and shiny. C. To show it completed his long-held dream. D. To show that the puzzle was too hard for him. 29. How did William most probably feel at the end of the passage? A. He felt quite calm. B. He felt hopeful again. C. He felt worried about the wind. D. He felt afraid that it was only a dream. 30. What is the passage mainly about? A. A poor family in Malawi. B. A dream of building houses. C. A boy and his broken bicycle. D. A friend who made a dream come true. 第二节： (一) 根据对话内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，每个选项限用一次。 Mr Friend is talking to Simon in his office.

Full calendars, nonstop notifications (消息提醒), and long to-do lists make people feel they are making progress. However, many people end their days very tired and wonder why their big goals are still far away. The truth is that being busy is different from being effective (有效的): One fills time while the other creates results. Understanding the difference helps you control your attention, make smarter choices, and focus on what truly matters. Busyness gives a false sense of achievement because it fills time with activity. Answering emails, attending meetings, and checking off small tasks create the illusion (错觉) of progress. However, activities of this kind often have no real purpose and fail to move important goals forward. What’s more, busy people often let outside tasks take over their time. As a result, they have little control over time, which leads to stress and little progress. Effectiveness, however, is measured (衡量) by results, not activity. Rather than ask how much was done, effective people ask what was achieved. They prioritise (优先考虑) tasks that create meaningful change, even if those tasks require more focus and effort. For example, they decide ahead of time what is worth their energy and then prioritise their time for important work. This planned method reduces unnecessary tasks and creates space for deep, focused effort. The real cost of busyness is not time spent, but progress lost. Being busy often hides the fact that little of real value is achieved. Effective people, on the other hand, often take a break from their work to check if they are keeping to their goals. When you stop measuring your days by how full they are and start measuring them by what truly moves you forward, work becomes more purposeful and life feels more satisfying. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 41.
